Migration Readiness Assessment & Planning (MRAP)

The MRA phase determines the current state of your readiness to migrate and identifies areas where you already have strong capabilities and where further development is needed to migrate at scale. The MRA evaluates cloud readiness along eight dimensions (landing zone, operating model, security and compliance, migration process experience, skills and center of excellence, migration plan and business plan). Priorities and gaps identified during the assessment help define the scope for the Migration Readiness & Planning (MRP) phase. The MRA typically involves a 1-day workshop conducted at your office with your key stakeholders.

During the Migration Readiness & Planning (MRP) phase, Powerup’s migration excellence team will work with your stakeholders to build the foundation for large-scale migration. Our prescriptive methodology and approach are based on best practices gleaned from hundreds of customer migration projects that significantly reduce time to migrate while lowering cost and risk. To prepare a cloud operational foundation, we will follow an agile approach with work streams for the cloud center of excellence, landing zone, operation model, and security and compliance. In addition, we’ll work with you to develop a strong migration plan and compelling business case that articulates the total cost of ownership (TCO) and return on investment (ROI) for cloud migration. At the end of this phase, which is usually completed in 2-4 months, you will be ready to migrate at scale.

Powerup Enterprise Migration Framework (PEMF) is designed based on the core migration principles outlined by the world’s leading cloud platform providers. Our architects took the best components among the recommended migration framework, used them to migrate some of the largest workloads to the cloud, fine-tuned it to near perfection. PEMF is a 7 step process which includes the following phases – Business Objectives & Cloud Strategy, Landscape Audit & Migration Blueprint, Powerup Cloud Launch Pad, Migration Methodology, Load/UAT Test, Production Go-Live, Managed Cloud Services.
